How did Floyd Mayweather make and spend $ 1 billion?

Many evidence shows that Floyd Mayweather is not as rich as what this puncher boasted.

Michael Jordan, Tiger Wood and Floyd Mayweather are some of the few athletes who have made $ 1 billion in their careers. However, when the other athletes have officially returned to the garden, Mayweather still has to maintain influence in the world by announcing a sudden return.

Chael Sonnen openly doubted Floyd Mayweather’s financial ability

Sonnen’s “accusations” are also not entirely unfounded. Although Floyd Mayweather earned about £ 300 million in 2017 after the match with Conor McGregor, this puncher still charged fans up to £ 1200 (about 36.5 million) for an online meeting.

Floyd Mayweather is famous for his economic abilities

Not only that, Mayweather is also a famous gambler. According to Terezowens, Mayweather won a £ 2.3 million bet on football betting in 2012. However, that was only a highlight in Mayweather’s ‘gambling career’ when the puncher owed his bet. to 40 million pounds and was forced to rematch with Pacquiao to earn money to repay debts in 2018.

This is also the time when Mayweather had a meeting and scheduled a rematch with Manny Pacquiao at the end of 2018, but then Floyd turned to the station with Tenshin Nasukawa that same year.

Relating a bit more about past events, Mayweather retired in 2007 after earning £ 20 million by winning Oscar De La Hoya, but then returned unexpectedly in 2009 to confront him. Juan Manuel Marquez. Coincidentally, in 2009, Mayweather’s first year of re-export was when he was owed £ 4.5 million in tax debt.

Mayweather continued to play until 2015 and announced his retirement with a 49-0 record. However, just 2 years later, this winners club mma took the stage with Conor McGregor and pocketed another 300 million pounds. In 2018, ‘Money’ re-exported and went to the top with Tenshin Nasukawa and brought in about 10 million more dollars.

Floyd Mayweather, before taking a stand with Conor McGregor, also owes the Internal Revenue Service £ 17.8 million.

However, Floyd Mayweather in the past year also silently supported the entire funeral costs for George Floyd, the victim of violence in the US police world. Besides, Floyd is also a Boxing boss and still maintains the frequency of “showing off money” on social networks. Is Floyd Mayweather bankrupt? Or is it all just inference.

How the defeat of Conor McGregor changed Dustin Poirier

Within six years, Dustin Poirier had a position of his own at the UFC.

Many boxers at that time tried to find a way to stop the arrogant Irish guy, but all, in turn, failed, including “The Diamond” Dustin Poirier.

After 6 years, Conor McGregor jumped to the top of the superstar, but Dustin Poirier was no less. The American puncher is currently at the top of the light category and has the most attractive fighting style in the UFC club fights. Dustin is even ranked above Conor on the rankings due to his active competition and more victories.

Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor each confronted each other in 2014

Dustin Poirier, sharing about his personal growth, admits that the match with Conor started an important process of change in his career.

Dustin Poirier was once a pawn to the success of Conor

In recent times, Poirier’s image has become more manly. Instead of the sassy image as before, Poirier impresses with composure both inside and outside the ring. Not only that, but the style of “The Diamond” has also become more cautious, sharp, and powerful than when it was in the Featherweight rank of UFC weight divisions.

Dustin Poirier of the present is a successful fighter and receives respect from all opponents

After the win over Dan Hooker over the weekend, Dustin Poirier is firmly in third place light. American Top Team puncher is in a break before continuing to the title race that promises to be tense when light champion Khabib Nurmagomedov returns to the ring.

Conor McGregor reacted when Dustin Poirier prioritized Khabib’s rematch

Conor’s comments were directed at the loss that Dustin Poirier suffered six years ago before the two faced off at Featherweight.

A convincing victory over Dan Hooker helps Dustin Poirier to have a favorable position on the Lightweight chart. Although it was necessary to wait for Khabib to successfully defend the title against Justin Gaethje, “The Diamond” Poirier still set the ultimate goal on the champion’s side.

Khabib remains the biggest target for Dustin Poirier right now

Along with Conor McGregor and Tony Ferguson, Dustin Poirier is one of 3 top 5 punchers waiting for the next developments in the light. With Khabib Nurmagomedov’s father just passed away, audiences are still expecting the Dagestan puncher to return soon and defend the championship against Justin Gaethje next September.

The GSP legend is unlikely to play against Khabib

Expected to be the last rival of Khabib Nurmagomedov. But so far, GSP still proved uncertain about the ability to reach Khabib.

Former UFC 2 weight class champion, MMA legend George St. Pierre has long been targeted as one of the lightest superstar Khabib Nurmgomedov’s brightest opponents.

George St. Pierre, 38, is currently retired from MMA due to health reasons. The first time was in 2013, then, in 2017, GSP returned to the ring, but then continued to break up with the ring because of intestinal ulcers due to overweight.

Share with reporter Malata of Daily Express, St. Pierre said that the match between him and Khabib was entirely in the hands of the UFC. Worth mentioning, the one-time UFC champion admitted he would be a bit hesitant if he was offered a job.

Khabib vs GSP is a match that many people look forward to

This is probably bad news for longtime MMA fans because both GSP and Khabib are considered the best fighters in MMA club fights. This is also the more anticipated match than the Khabib vs Conor McGregor match because the expertise between these two boxers is considered to be the most comprehensive.

Recently, Khabib has also repeatedly mentioned his retirement plan with a final match against George St. Pierre. It is difficult to understand why the UFC missed this opportunity to host this super match.

Dana White would rather see the GSP legend commentary than confront Khabib

Although he is a famous martial artist, Mr. Dana White said he did not want the Khabib-GSP super match to happen.

Dana White didn’t seem to be clear about whether he wanted the battle of Khabib-St or didn’t. Pierre happens. Recently, UFC President Dana White shared about Khabib’s retirement game at UFC, but he also said he wanted legend George St. Pierre (the most anticipated rival for Khabib Nurmagomedov) is a commentator for the UFC rather than fighting the unbeaten Russian.

The GSP-Khabib matchup is one of the fans’ most anticipated matches

George St. Pierre is currently a French commentator for RDS, a French TV channel for Canadian-French in Canada. Last year, George retired for the second time due to health problems. Before that, the legend returned to the ring in 2017 and beat mid-range defending champion Michael Bisping.

Particularly with Khabib Nurmagomedov, the Russian boxer will defend the light championship title against Justin Gaethje at UFC 254 on October 24. And no matter how exciting the game against GSP, Khabib won’t be able to go any further if he doesn’t get past Gaethje in October this year.

UFC paid Masvidal £ 280,000 for the UFC Fight Island event

Despite the defeat in the semi-weight match, but Jorge Masvidal is not too sad to look at the journey to Abu Dhabi and the amount of money he received from this event. Let’s take a look at the numbers that UFC paid to fighters at the main event UFC Fight Island recently.

The Sun Sport has just announced the amount of money that UFC pays to fighters who participated in the main even UFC Fight Island.

Unsurprisingly, Kamaru Usman was the one who made the most with 400 thousand pounds. Meanwhile, his defeat general Jorge Masvidal also received significant numbers, 280 thousand pounds.

Masvidal still earns money from UFC despite losing

It is known that this is the amount that UFC pays the athletes, not including other surcharges. Another significant revenue comes from television rights from paid views. According to the reports, this is certainly not a small number when more than 1.3 million PPVs have been confirmed.

Kamaru Usman defeated Masvidal and pocketed 400 thousand pounds

Defeating Jorge Masvidal, helping Kamaru Usman not only successfully defended the mid-class belt, but also increased his total number of wins at UFC to 12-0, and the unbeaten series in the MMA arena was 16.

Notably, when two defeated generals Max Holloway and Jose Aldo ranked third on the list, UFC paid a lot with the same 240 thousand pounds. Chicken class champion Alexander Volkanovski, despite defeating Holloway, earned only £ 200,000, while Russian boxer Petr Yan only earned £ 56,000 in a victory over Aldo in the flies belt battle.

The money some fighters at UFC 251 received from UFC

In the women’s content, Jessica Andrade earned the most, 84 thousand pounds despite losing to Rose Namajunas who received only 80 thousand pounds.

Paige VanZant star pocketed 48 thousand pounds in a flash defeat against Amanda Ribas, who only earned 29 thousand pounds.

There are 2 boxers deducted for not guaranteeing the standard weight. Raulian Paiva, who defeated Zhacheas Zhumagulov received only £ 8,000 instead of the original 10,000. While Vanessa Melo only received 7 thousand compared to the original 10,000 in the defeat against Karol Rosa.

After Jon Jones, Jorge Masvidal put pressure on remuneration with UFC

Currently, UFC is having a funny story causing many changes in the locker room, that is, the superstars of the tournament constantly complained about the compensation, when a weak boxer gets a raise regardless of receiving 3 matches consecutive losses.

In recent times, UFC is having a lot of trouble about salaries for boxers. While the top UFC fighters are constantly denouncing compensation (Masvidal, Jon Jones, Conor McGregor), there are cases where weak, poor, losing fighters receive a raise.

Recently, Tim Elliott (won 15, lost 11, draw 1) has received a decision to raise the salary from UFC regardless of whether he has NOT held the championship title of any previous tournament. Moreover, he competes in Flyweight, a weight that is of little interest at UFC and he is losing 3 consecutive games in a row. What has made this puncher a raise while other UFC PPV superstars are ignored?

Not every superstar will be reminded to raise wages at UFC

Not only Tim Elliott is a boxer who is paid higher than he really is. T within the past 5 years, heavy boxer Alistair Overeem is also on the list of the richest fighters in UFC. However, except that he was once the K1 champion and has fought in many different MMA tournaments, the Dutchman’s performance at UFC is quite modest.

Now, Overeem is still “in charge” of the “doorkeeper” of heavyweight, only hanging around in the top 10 and failing to compete for the title. Even so, In the list of the 10 highest-earning UFC fighters, Overeem has always been a persistent name.

BMF holder Jorge Masvidal is constantly tense with the UFC president, the cause of his dissatisfaction with his current remuneration in the tournament. Jon Jones’s proposal to increase the remuneration for the match against Francis Ngannou gave UFC President Dana White a headache, now the same problem continues with Jorge Masvidal.

Jorge Masvidal is asking for a higher remuneration to be able to fight

It can be seen that this is the main reason why “Gamebred” has postponed the title match with middleweight champion Kamaru Usman, although this is Masvidal’s first match at UFC.

The boxer who is ranked 3rd in Welterweight also points out that boxers like Jon Jones, Henry Cejudo or Conor McGregor all have the same problem. The evidence is the information retired, demanding continuous cancellation of these boxers.
